    Alternatives to paying big bucks for cable TV

    We have not ever subscribed to cable. I used to sort of wish that I had it sometimes. So, I'd have more viewing opportunities.

    But, there are so many other options out there right now, that I don't desire it anymore. And, the other options are often much more economical.
    • We subscribe to Netflix.
    • We subscribe to Hulu Plus.
    • We occasionally rent a video from the local video store, or from Amazon Prime. We don't subscribe to Amazon Prime, but, I know others who do, and they like it.
    • I received a Roku for Chirstmas. I currenlty subscribe to two channels there. One is free. I think that the other might charge only $4.99 per month following the first free month.

    Anyone else going without cable TV?

    I have Cable TV, but I also have a ROKU for Netflix. I personally think Netflix is the best deal there is. Love it!

      I have "cable", and Apple TV mainly for Netflix.

        I'm so addicted to both my Netflix and my Roku!
